An ungenerous sky
The Sun transits in opposition in the seventh field in Aquarius , where it conjuncts the New Moon on February 17th. The fastest planets also transit Aquarius : Mercury until February 6th, Venus until the 10th, Mars from January 23rd (to March 2nd). As for the slow planets, Pluto in turn is opposed to the first decan at the beginning Aquarius , while Uranus in Taurus is still dissonant with the third. Neptune and Saturn however, will begin their new trines in the ninth field in Aries , on January 26th and February 14th respectively. In short, it is a not particularly generous sky that accompanies a consequently challenging period, in any case not always easy. The most tiring days will perhaps be January 26th and 27th, February 1st, 2nd, 8th, 9th, 15th, 16th, and 17th. The days of January 24th and 28th, and February 5th, 6th, 7th, 10th, and 11th will be more peaceful and profitable.
Saturn and Time
I've said it before and I'll say it again: it won't be a very rewarding or always easy month. But I don't want to discourage you, much less alarm you, perhaps even authorizing you to live it in passive resignation! No. I'd simply like to empower you to be patient... but actively, intentionally, motivated by the awareness that this is an important phase nonetheless. I remind you that the second half of the year, starting in spring and especially in summer, will be decidedly more generous in results and satisfaction. Being patient now therefore means preparing yourself for future developments and, above all, avoiding delaying or even compromising them with rash decisions, impulsive actions, errors of judgment or behavior. Many planets in opposition , with Mars playing a leading role, expose you to the risk of impatience, restlessness, irritability... without, however, the necessary control of objectivity and concreteness. Paradoxically, you may feel helpless in the face of difficulties that are beyond your control, by which you feel unfairly implicated and hindered; But you'll also be influenced by your subjective mood, which oscillates between a desire for revenge and proud disenchantment. Ultimately, such an expenditure of emotional energy will only tire and annoy you, while it would be better to conserve your strength until you can channel it toward clearer goals. In the meantime, embrace Saturn 's new trine in its significance as the ruler of time: a precious ally in every constructive process.
Meeting points
Despite problems, difficulties, or various unexpected events, you may still achieve some positive results at work during the month, provided you focus on the most important matters and don't overload yourself with too many commitments. The risk, as I mentioned, would be to waste your energy without achieving much or even making mistakes. As much as possible, it would be best to focus on your tasks independently, as you will struggle to collaborate calmly and constructively. Rivalries, tensions, and unpleasant interference cannot be ruled out, meaning you will perceive any differing opinions as criticism, and you yourself will be less open to discussion, exchange, and sharing. Of course, it also depends on the type of activity and your specific roles, but generally speaking, it's best to steer clear of sensitive discussions, especially with partners or superiors. Even in relationships, at least until February 10th, unpleasant arguments could arise, punctuated by recriminations and mutual accusations. Your partner may complain about your somewhat brusque manner, your lack of presence or attention, while you feel poorly understood, appreciated, or supported. This may be true in both cases, but throwing it in each other's faces certainly won't make things better! Instead, make an effort to find common ground, to speak honestly and listen openly, perhaps sharing different experiences or initiatives, away from family and work worries. And don't be afraid to ask for help, or even apologize: pride is never helpful, especially among those who love each other.
First decade
While Pluto continues its opposition , Venus joins the fray until January 25th, Mercury until the 26th, Mars from January 23rd to February 5th. In short, it's a period that demands more than it offers... and above all, it demands patience, self-control, and a willingness to adapt. Try not to vent your bad mood on those who don't fit in; focus on what you like or are most interested in.
Second decade
Venus ' opposition affects you from January 25th to February 2nd, Mercury 's opposition from January 26th to February 1st, and finally Mars ' opposition from the 5th to the 17th. This is also a somewhat challenging period for you, but it will become more so if you insist on results or become rigid in your opinions! If something isn't going as you'd like, perhaps it's your perspective that needs to change.
Third decade
The Uranus square continues to affect you, perhaps signaling a certain impatience, especially at work. Some changes may be slow to materialize, or there may be personal doubts or objective obstacles. Considering that Mercury will be in opposition from February 1st to 6th and Venus from February 2nd to 10th, hold off on drawing conclusions about unfolding situations.
